Accessories

My journey with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint began with refurbishing vintage picnic baskets and has grown to include many other items. While I love the versatility of the new insulated trendy coolers/fabric picnic baskets, the vintage baskets bring out the history buff in me. I want to know the history of each basket and the stories behind the people who owned and used them. My average clay pots got a total makeover with some decoupage and and chalk paint.

I decided after my first class at Birds Gotta Fly that I wanted to create special picnic baskets for special people in my life. My desire was to make them symbolic with special art, decopauge, transfers or stencling so they were personalized to the owners and meaningful to them. My hope is each new owner will use them, packing them full of wonderful treats and will take time in their busy lives to go on a picnic with a special person(s) or beloved family members. They are designed to be used and enjoyed. If you have an idea for a special basket I have a stock of baskets and take special orders!
